We used the property for a family gathering. The location is perfect for the beach, an easy walk/carry all the beach things. The property was well maintained, appointed and even had a bunch of beach items in the garage to borrow that came in handy when our pop up crashed. We enjoyed every minute of the trip and would highly recommend this property for others...it is on our do again list

Absolutely loved our stay at this beautiful beach house! The home was thoughtfully designed with families in mind—every detail was considered to make our stay comfortable and stress-free. From the fully stocked kitchen to the beach gear and cozy spaces, it was clear the host put a lot of care into creating the perfect getaway. The location was ideal: just a short walk to the beach and tucked away in a quiet, peaceful area. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to relax and make memories. Highly recommend and would love to come back!

Beach Getaway

We recently stayed at this beach home and the views were amazing. We stayed with a group and everyone was impressed with the cleanliness and amenities available. Melanie made available all cooking utensils, beach chairs, a cart, beach toys, beach towels, bath towels, extra comforters, really anything you could need. She left us the sweetest welcome gift for our stay. It was best experience for a long weekend getaway, highly recommend.

Beach vacation

Family Vacation with our adult children. Steps away from the beach love the well stocked kitchen. Host has given extra thought to what you might need to make your stay great. Every time I would say “I wonder if they have…?” It would be there. Appreciate the attention to making this VRBO feel like a home away from home. Definitely recommend staying here with family of all ages.

Exceptional Gem in Pirates Beach

This house is stellar and I would give 10 stars if I could. Entire house has been updated, adorable decor, immaculately clean, AC works like a champ and the kitchen had everything we needed. BOTH decks give unobstructed views of the beach and it’s just steps away from the sand. The beds are comfortable and the bathrooms are pristine. The owners have thought of everything to make this a relaxing stay. They made us feel very welcome and appreciated. We are already checking our calendar to see when we can come back.

The proximity to getting to town, properties are very well maintained and Pirates Beach is a private, quiet community with wonderful people!

What makes this property unique

Sandpiper shores is steps from the beach and has a high end designer flare to it! The floor plan is amazing with a bedroom on each floor, and balconies and windows over-looking every aspect this special retreat has to offer.
